You Asked for it!

Yes! YOU ASKED FOR IT
... so here are a few pictures of vintage coins, a few of the clocks we have in house, a fabulous ANTIQUE WHEELCHAIR , and a few other items that caught my fancy!

Before the pics, another note: we have two new dealers to welcome aboard! And we're very excited to have their inventory compliment ours. Keep checking back for the pictures! (We still have one small dealer space available if you want to get in on the excitement!)

We're listening...
Someone from the East Bay asked about US coins... well, we do have allot. Our coin dealer is always bringing in new stock. Richard has quite a following! Now, trying to take pictures of just a small portion of his collection is another matter, challenging for me... but is my best effort to show you just a few of the coin trays he offers.


Ok... no one asked to see these, but they sure bring back memories! Remember the 50's when our parents would bronze our shoes!!
Here is the ANTIQUE WHEELCHAIR someone asked about. The finish, color, and structure of this chair is beautiful.... why do I picture Shirley Temple pushing this about with Poor Clara in it? (Remember Heidi?)
Another stray, but inspiring photo... Judy's fresh from Hawaii! ah... who would have thought to pair glass pineapples with candle sticks! THIS would be a really UNIQUE gift!
OK... I did get requests about clocks, so I scurried around and snapped a few pictures... some of these are vintage, others are newer... they are all charming. I don't know how to describe the last clock though... take a look and see for yourself!







See what I mean??? hmmm

ESTATE FINDS! and RUBY GLASS for VALENTINES!

Are you READY for VALENTINES DAY?? Our dealers have stocked up some FABULOUS vintage RUBY GLASS! I took just a few pictures of some of the LOVELY pieces!
(We have some new additions in the furniture department too, so keep reading!)
I wish my camera could really capture the depth of the RUBY color!
Pitcher, goblets, bell, candlesticks.... read on to see the other RARE finds!

I took this picture through the glass case, but I wanted you to see the RARE RUBY napkin rings, and, and , and! the REALLY RARE RUBY HANDLED server!Also, fresh from a recent ESTATE sale... a pair (but sold separately) perfect for your vintage bedroom. Just look at how beautiful this birdseye maple dresser is!
And, WOW, look at all the storage. Your socks wont ever get mixed up again!


And, here's the second piece to the set (sold individually). This mirrored dressing table is elegant!
Speaking of Maple... here's a really nice piece as well... it's a small dresser with a pull out that can be useful as a desk, changing table, more display? A very sweet piece.
I love these ball footed piano stools! They never seem to stay in our shop long!

I really wish I had room in my house for this wonderful coffee table. The tray lifts off easily, perfect to make a grand entrance when you serve desert and coffee to your guests!
I couldn't resist snapping this sweet school desk. These always look so sweet with old school books, quilts, plants, VINTAGE DOLLS, or whatever you like to display!
So, these are only a few of our new additions this month. Remember, we have 20 dealers who are ALWAYS bringing in more fabulous finds!

See you soon!

This Weekend's Special Finds

I love a good hunt, don't you? Well, right when you walk in the door of Boulder Creek Antiques you'll spot Monica's stash of vintage compacts and purses. Starting at an amazing low price of $5!! She calls those her "budget compacts". Here's a picture or two of her LOVELY treasures.

And... I couldn't resist taking a picture of Jan's vintage find. It's a darling old dressing table. Jan admits in needs TLC... she even suggests that you could cut the legs and use it in a child's playhouse. I don't know... I'm seeing a fresh coat of paint and a lovely cabbage rose skirt...hmm.

Well, here's what Janet has to offer. An amazing Antique Oak Sideboard Buffet. It has an amazing amount of storage, and it's in very nice condition. Such an elegant addition to any home! Call the store for the measurements and the price (831 338 0600 11-5pm)

And Richard brought in this funky old National Cash Register. Guess I shouldn't have said "funky", it's in good condition and you could probably get it working! Or it would just look spectacular in your cash register collection.



Finally, another item of Richard's... very unusual, hard to find (if you were to go looking for it), a Maple Dentist's Cabinet. Richard has some vintage dresser items in the glass compartment. This would look amazing with something you collect displayed inside. Plus there are drawers and a pull out shelf.
Opps... another small grouping I couldn't resist photographing. Cocktails anyone? These vintage cocktail shakers and decanter make a lovely display behind our checkout counter. Just mixing your beverage in one of these will make you feel rich and elegant. For your Inauguration Party or Super Bowl Party... you'll really impress your guests!!
